Narrated Al-Bara:
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ بْنُ حُمَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَحْمَدُ بْنُ يُونُسَ ، عَنْ أَبِي بَكْرِ بْنِ عَيَّاشٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنِ الْبَرَاءِ ، قَالَ جَاءَ رَجُلٌ إِلَى رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فَقَالَ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ : ( يَسْتَفْتُونَكَ قُلِ اللَّهُ يُفْتِيكُمْ فِي الْكَلاَلَةِ ) فَقَالَ لَهُ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم " تُجْزِيكَ آيَةُ الصَّيْفِ " .
"A man came to the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) and said: 'O Messenger of Allah! They ask you about a legal verdict. Say: "Allah directs (thus) regarding Al-Kalalah (4:176)." So the Prophet (ﷺ) said to him: "You should be sufficed with the Ayah of summer." (Meaning this Ayah, while in An-Nisa number 12, is mention of the topic, and it was revealed in the winter, this Ayah, revealed in the summer - the last revealed about it - explains it)
